Seat Review From Section 538, Row 1, Seat 1

The guard railings in the first row of the 500 level were a huge obstacle when trying to actually watch the game on the field instead of just the scoreboard. I was on the aisle in Seat 1 and had the highest portion of the guard rail right in my line of sight, but it does get shorter in the seats toward the middle so I would have been better off sitting further in.

When you sit back, you can see maybe 60% of the field without looking between the bars, and the only way to remedy the obstruction is to lean way forward which got to be very uncomfortable after a long period of time. The legroom also felt much more limited in Row 1 as the concrete juts out toward you from the front wall, limiting the amount of space you have to put your feet.

Interestingly the first 3 rows of this section are on a set of metal risers, and didn't appear to be a permanent part of the stadium. However the elevation between the rows was still very good and from Row 2 I had no problem seeing over the people in front of me (when they were there). The leg roo...
